Hello Michael, this is an excellent poem. Thanks for your response on my blog. The book was published by Publish America. There was no cost; however, you will have to sign a 7-year contract. Author House did not do anything for me. Take care and get well soon. God bless always! ~Joseph

I think very little people see nature and everything around us is a Gift from God. Thanks for reminding us.

Well done Michael! Lovely imagery and word choices. With regard to 'Per Ardua...' some believe it was just a hoax to compel the Russians to accelerate their space program and dislocate their economy... hmmm! Regards, Keith

Hi Michael...we often drive by tabletop mountain on our way to our cabin in the Plumas Nat'l Forest.....(I'm assuming the same one out of Oroville?). Lovely poem for the Springtime contest!! :) Good luck, neighbor! ~ Carrie
